Where romance never ends and happiness abounds

Switch by Adriana Locke

After spilling her tea, she discovers she has no gas in her car. Add that her arm keeps sticking to her dress from syrup left on the console of her car, flustered feels like an understatement.

Then she sees her new boss.

Graham Landry is the epitome of NSFW in his custom-fit suit, black-rimmed glasses, and a look so stern her libido doesn’t stand a chance. Being flustered is just the start of her problems.

Her punctuality is only the start of his. With a pink slip in hand, he’s been waiting on his new secretary to show up only to let her go. Then she rushes in with her doe eyes and rambling excuses, smelling like bacon and lavender. The termination paper falls to the side as she falls in his arms.

This is a disaster in the making. Not because of his pinpoint exactness or her free spirit, but because when they’re together, the sparks that fly threaten to burn the whole place down.

This series from Adriana Locke was already one of my favorites. And “Switch” has only added to my intense love of this author and the series.

Our story starts with Graham Landry meeting his new assistant, Mallory Sims. Unfortunately, it’s simultaneously attraction and annoyance for Graham. Mallory is late for her first day and while he’s attracted to her, he also doesn’t want to cross that line and Mallory could easily be described as Graham’s total opposite.

Graham is a neat freak, Mallory is messy and chaotic. However, one of the biggest things I admired about Mallory is that while she may have been more prone to messiness, she was also truly amazing at her job as Graham’s executive assistant. I appreciated that the author made Mallory busy, messy, beautiful, and intelligent. The more I read this story, the more I felt Mallory is really a little bit of all of us. She had things she was trying to work on. She knew what areas she lacked in. She didn’t care about being in awe of the nicer things. She knew to be kind to others, while still sticking up for herself.

This book can be a standalone, but I can say that you will honestly enjoy this story more if you read “Sway” and “Swing” beforehand. One of the main reasons I feel this way is because we see Graham in those other books. His evolution in his own story was so much more impressive knowing him from the other stories. Another thing I enjoyed was seeing Barrett (Sway) and Lincoln (Swing) being the ones to school Graham on love.

I can’t recommend this book enough. I enjoyed it immensely. Also, this series (and other books from the author) are on Kindle Unlimited so you can read all of these books with your subscription.
